Family visit!

 
Grandma & Grandpa B. and Aunt Kersten came to visit us yesterday and they gave Ivy an amazing pink exersaucer!  She loves her new toy (and so do her parents) and she also fell in love with her Grandma, Grandpa and Auntie.  She did very well meeting everyone and she had no stranger anxiety or confusion.  She loved being held by her adoring relatives, but proved to everyone that she definitely recognizes that Kevin and I are her mommy and daddy.



She also showed everyone how well she's transitioning to Madison time as she took two afternoon naps and then stayed awake for a long time and went to bed shortly after 6 pm.  Every day brings us closer to more sleep and easier nighttime routines.  We are very proud of and amazed by our little girl and we're looking forward to introducing her to Grandpa Frank, Grandma Pauline and Aunt Christine.

What a cutie! I'm so happy for you and am glad that all is going well. I only ask for one thing - are there any pictures of Ivy and Mom? Or is mom always behind the camera?

Love to all - Jean

Awwww! Makes me remember how exciting it is to have a baby...and think of all the fun you'll be having at every stage.

After clicking every 20 minutes on Wednesday, waiting for that first picture of the three of you together, and then days away from my computer, I am even more thrilled to see all the wonderful pictures of the three of you together and Ivy sleeping, eating, and playing. I'm so glad you love to ergo as much as we do - and that Ivy likes it too! We're looking forward to meeting Ivy in person, but while you take this time to get to know each other, thanks for the insights into your first days together. We're so thrilled for all of you.

Isn't it too bad she doesn't have any toys to play with? I'm glad she's settling in so well and even letting you get some sleep! Looking forward to meeting her!
